Four Strokes Separate 13 Low Scorers

Sub-Par Performances May Shatter National Mark of 286.

BY HENRY M'LEMORE United Press Staff Correspondent

SPRINGFIELD, N. J.,, June 6—

What promised to be one of the|

maddest scrambles. in the history of golf began today when a red-hot field of 76 shgrpshooters teed off in the final 36 holes of the fortieth National Open championship. Never has the Open field been so bunched. The leading group was separated by only four strokes, 18 by five, 22 by six, 32 by seven, 44 by eight and 47 by nine. When it is reme that Opens of the past have proved that any man who starts the last two rounds no more than 10 strokes behind the leader

has a sound chance, the possibility |

of a war-whoop finish is grand. Two of the most formidable chal-

lengers for the title won last year

by Sam Parks, who didn’t even quality for the last half of play, were among the early . starters. Shortly after breakfast time Johnny Revolta, who had a 70 and 71 for his first two rounds for an aggregate of 141, left the first tee with a fair ‘gallery his heels. - Revolta was barely out of sight when big Vic Ghezzi of Deal, N. J., who shared the half-way lead with Ray Mangrum of Pittsburgh, with a two-round aggregate of 140,

blasted one down the middle of the

fairway ‘and was off on the big chase.

‘Record Crowd Expected

The weather again was perfect. There wasn’t a cloud in the sky, and the wind was cool and gentle. ‘The Baltusrol course ‘figured to play just as easy -as in tlie first” two rounds, despite a further setting back of the tee markers by the committee. Club officials, .accompanied

by the groundkeeper, toured the

course shortly after dawn, to move the markers 10 years farther to the Tear. : 9 Today's crowd was expected to establish a new high in gate receipts for a National Open final. With the admission price a flat $3, more than $25,000 was expected to taken in. This would mean 8000 or more paying customers. It was an early crowd. Before the first competitor teed @T there were several thousand spectators banked around the starting tee, and the big

parking lot behind the club house.

was jammed. The big crowd was proof that golf followers were keen for the sub-par shooting which has featured the tournament. It was almost certain that the winner would break the open record of 286, established by Chick Evans in 1916, and tied by Gene Sarazen four years ago al Fresh Meadows. There were six players who qualified for the fast day's play with sub-par scores of petter than 142, and one who equalled it. : is Farrell Cracks Par

Willie Hunter, who had a 148 for the first two rounds, and Huske, who was three strokes worse off, the first twosome off, didn’t help their chances by reaching the turn in 38 and 36, respectively. Johnny Farrell, the home pro, starting 10 strokes off the pace, began like a house afire and was three under par at the end of four holes. Farrell was out in 33, three under par. Revolta was one under after four holes and his playing partner, Prank Moore of Cleveland, was the same. Revolta birdied the easy first hole in four, and parred the next three. Moore picked up his birdie on the short third when he canned a

immy Thomson, est hitter, who started with a 147, was out in an even par 36. Ghezzi opened with four pars. He seemed a bit jittery on the first hole when he dubbed his second scramble with
